playing, singing, and being happy:)

The flower said "I wish I was a tree"
C D
The tree said "I wish I could be
D
A different kind of tree"
G
The cat wished that it was a bee
G
The turtle wished that it could fly
C
Really high into the sky
D
Over rooftops and then dive

Deep into the sea

And in the sea there is a fish
C
A fish that has a secret wish
D
A wish to be a big cactus
G
With a pink flower on it

Of love

So dry and lonely

That'll stab you like a thousand knives
